Standard Cost Calculation (PO139)

Run Standard Cost Calculation (PO139) to calculate and create a reversing journal entry for the difference between the standard cost and the purchase order cost for purchase order lines that have a Matched Not Received (MNR) or Received Not Invoiced (RNI) quantity that is greater than zero.

PO139 is only available for use with inventory-tracked items and standard cost companies. You define a company as being standard cost using Company (IC01.1).

By running PO139, you allow the intransit inventory account to be reflected in the standard cost at month's end, and you allow zero cost inventory for inventory-tracked items until they are actually used.

You run this program at the end of each month, after running Invoice Distribution Closing (AP175) and General Ledger Interface (IC130). The journal entry posts in summary to the general ledger, while the report shows details of the transactions used to create the report.

When you run Period Closing (GL199), the program reverses the journal entry created by PO139 in the next month.
